The defect
Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2023 Redhawk SE motorhomes. The dinette rear and forward-facing seat belts have the incorrect brackets installed, which can cause the brackets to loosen.

The risk

Dealers will replace the seat belt brackets, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 14, 2023. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267. Jayco's number for this recall is 9903584.
